Hi All, Azure Active Directory Sign-in Logs is really helpful, when analyzing Sign-in Problems. But it also can be very helpful, when analyzing the overall Sign-ins or looking out for strange behavior. One of the Tips would be th Filter for Location and use the CountryCode and Status of Sucess
I have set up Azure Active Directory Diagnostics to save the Sign-In Logs to a LogAnalytics Workspace. Here you can Query the Logs with KQL.

Hi All, As you probably know, i am a big Fan of Azure Automation to run some Automation Scripts for M365 in Azure. When you try to install a new Microsoft Graph Module in Azure Automation from the Gallery it will fail, due its dependency for Microsoft.Graph.Authentication, because an older Version is installed.
I've tried to figure out, how to update the Modules with PowerShell (too much clicking for doing it manually).
